Before W I loved spending time putting makeup on every day and although I still love putting it on I never have the energy to take it off again (hence playing around with it right before a shower CestLaVie). So now I'm dipping my toes back in and doing eyes, brows, and lips again. I like NYX's micro brow pencil for my brows because it helps me fill in the ends where my brows get sparse.

This was me last night while playing around with makeup. I did highlighting and contouring with cream sticks and used a cream blush as well. Everything was set with powders. It was fun to play around but my skin felt like it was dying and it took forever to get all the cream products off. Pdq

Anyone have a good way to get foundation to not break down on an oily nose? My skin has turned dry everywhere but my nose and makeup always breaks down there first.

I do primer and then translucent powder (ELF) after putting on my foundation and dab my nose extra. I'm usually okay until noon ish and it put it on around 6:00am

Back in my university days I bought some "mac" from eBay and I def want to toss it now lol. At the thought of lead and arsenic.
I always thought the quality was probably lower but never even considered safety.

If it's over 3 years old, I definitely would!

I think 8$ a shadow now.

I need to repurchase some stuff because I always think "but what if there's this one obscure time I need a metallic purple?!"

Since this thread is alive again.
I'm breaking out like crazy (for me) I have small pores and need a base that will last all day.
I don't do lipstick or primer.
I will post an unfiltered photo if needed.
Someone help me and my face
Am willing to spend to get something.

Peekaru, do you use toner or witch hazel? I've heard they can help with breakouts.

I meant: cream and serum. ok, when you wake up, whats your face prep routine before you start your makeup? For me, I will wash my face (some days a regular cleanser, others an exfoliating cleanser bc dry skin probz), then add a hydrating serum, then a face cream with SPF (or split this in two steps). You mentioned you didn't want primer, but for me, I spot prime my dry spots and then to blur pores. Then I makeup. The base you put on before makeup can make or break your makeup.

Hmmmm--- Let's see
I get up and shower, I wash my face in the shower then I put on face lotion, let it dry and then I attempt to put make up on while the two year old steals it all.
This morning I rode my bike in, so I showered, lotioned and then after riding wiped the sweat off my face.

Random but on life of Kylie, Kylie Jenner went into a place that was selling counterfeit products. I didn't see the full show so I don't know how that went down. But crazy.

Is this where I drop my embarrasing problem?
I get the worst breakouts on my upper thigh/butt area. I don't know what to do. I know nobody sees it except H, or if I am wearing a bathing suit but it is sooooo awful. Does anybody else have this issue? I might try the Kate Somerville stuff. Spending that much for my ass seems ridiculous though.

Spending that much for my ass seems ridiculous though. A girl I follow on YouTube, Casey Holmes has breakouts on her back. She recently did a video where she described the products she used to clear it up. I cant think of them off the top of my head (I soooo helpful I know), but if I get a chance today I will go through her videos and find it to share.

45thparallel, did you ever get the KKW stuff? or was it sold out? Also did you guys see that Jaclyn Hill hasa been apologizing like crazy on twitter.... apparently she was drunk and snapchatting with Kathleen Lights. Kathleen used the N word, and then was like please don't post that! and her husband was like "don't post that" and then she did anyway. Now everyone's pissed that she uses the N word and also that Jaclyn is kind of an asshole friend who hung her out to dry. She's saying she didn't hear the comment or the "please don't post this". These makeup people and their drama lol.

Spending that much for my ass seems ridiculous though. I'm in the same boat as you! And so far nothing I've tried has really worked. It's not horrible, usually a few bumps here and there, but without fail I always seem to get a bad one before I need to wear a bathing suit. And sometimes they really hurt if I'm sitting or my clothes rub against them.

It says it can take like 6 weeks to work, so we'll see.

Ok I don't use the n word but what person that is not a 70 year old white man actually does?! Am I naive? Ok...I take some of that back, I do hear black kids at school using it when they talk to each other but never never any white kids. I just think if it as a generational thing.
